About DEP
DEP steps into transactions where experienced operators need additional sponsorship capacity, balance sheet strength, capital, or complementary expertise. Depending on the transaction, DEP may participate as a key principal, guarantor, co-GP, capital partner, or strategic operating partner. Our goal is to complement the existing team — not replace it — and create a structure where responsibilities, economics, risk, and execution are clearly aligned.
A real deal. An experienced operator. A specific gap we can help solve.

OUR STANDARD
Before DEP commits its balance sheet to a transaction, we look at five things — not just the capacity gap you need filled.
01
The Deal
Property fundamentals, price, market, and business plan on their own merits.
02
The Operator
Track record and demonstrated ability to execute the plan you've laid out.
03
The Financing
Where the capital stack stands today, and how our commitment fits into it.
04
The Execution Plan
What happens after closing, and who is responsible for what.
05
The Partnership
Whether this is a fit beyond one transaction, not a one-time capacity request.

Strategic Deal Guidance
Every opportunity is reviewed independently. Submission does not constitute a commitment by DEP to provide sponsorship, guarantor/KP support, capital, financing, balance sheet support, or co-GP participation. Any potential relationship is subject to underwriting, due diligence, mutually acceptable terms, lender requirements, and applicable legal and regulatory considerations.
FIT
For Operators With an Active Opportunity.
